Hi,

I have bought a unit of DS-LCD-SRL162 (http://www.cytron.com.my/viewProduct.ph ... LCD-SRL162).

I would like to ask how to interface the serial lcd with Arduino Mega2560 since there is limited information about it.

Your help is appreciated. Thanks.

Pls refer to the user manual provided. http://www.cytron.com.my/datasheet/LCD/ ... Manual.pdf
and also sample code http://www.cytron.com.my/viewProduct.ph ... LCD-SRL162
and rewrite for arduino.

i wonder why dont u just buy http://www.cytron.com.my/viewProduct.ph ... d%20Shield

which is much easier to get start immediately, no soldering, no need to refer user manual, directly take the arduino library and use.

Thank you for your response. I have referred to the manual and sample code provided but I don't know how to connect the wire since there are Enable and Clock pins. :(

Can the shield compatible with Arduino Mega?
